Im tooting my own horn

I had lap band surgery the end of June 2008 and I weighed 276 pounds.. This past Saturday was a huge milestone for me...I have officially lost 100 pounds!!!..I never thought that I would make it this far...but the band has helped me control my food intake tremendously. I have gone from a size 24 to currently a size 12 pants. Im not down to my goal yet, but I know I will make it this year....Im sooo looking to prove all of my "she will ever be thin" relatives wrong...

I am amazed at how much stamina that I have now. I can actually fit into rides at the amusement park, I can fit into booths at restaurants and not have to suck in my gut and have my boobs rest on the tabletop..I can shop at "normal size" stores again...though my mind still has me thinking that I have to shop at Lane Bryant and Avenue to fit into anything..I could go on and on and on at all of my WOW moments...

Never give up! If I can do it..SO CAN YOU!!!

Congratulations! You are doing phenomenal!
